Humming Birds In Coarsegold

Coarsegold California is located in the Sierra foothills about an hour from the southern entrance to Yosemite National Park on California State Highway 41. We often visit my wife’s family who live in Coarsegold.  They have friends who every New years Day celebrate the “Okie” tradition of eating greens and black eyed peas to ensure good luck in the coming new year.  Her friends have many humming bird feeds and buy sugar in 50 lb bags to keep the feeders full.  These hummingbird pictures were taken New Years Day 2012.  You can’t tell from these pictures, but there were too many humming birds to count.
